I’ve put so much work into my home the past few yearsIt feels like I’ve moved to an entirely different houseIt’s the same structure thoughI just stopped neglecting itFor years I tried ignore the damageBut I had to do somethingIt was falling apartI started with the inside and then moved to the gardenI’m really happy with itIt looks beautiful and feels safe and warmI don’t expect it to ever be finishedThere will always be work to doBefore the renovations my house was much darkerWhen it was stormy I would lose power so easilySometimes the power would be out for daysI used to sit in the dark a lotNow I try to keep the door and windows openIt seems to helpIt's much brighter here nowMy power still goes out from time to time Especially when it's stormySo I have at least one candle burning at all timesThat way I can see in the dark

I walked by your house todayIt was darker than usualThe door was closed and the blinds were drawnI couldn’t see insideDid your power go out? Was there a storm? When you get this let me knowI am your neighbor so please don’t hesitate to reach outReally, I am happy to helpIf it did go out, please don't worryIt will come backAnd if you don't have enough candles to light the way we can build a fire together
